Why no full screen after installing windows 8(over windows 7) Is there a solution?

[trebor66]

I used Windows 7 , with VMware Fusion, and had no problem with the screen, when I decide to choose for full screen, I got a full screen.

After installing windows 8.1 over windows 7 I have a problem with full screen, of course I can choose full screen but then I don't get the max screen. The windows 8 view is only 33% of the screen I think or maybe 50, but that's not what I want. How is it possible to change this, or is it not possible? When I choose full screen of course I want to see windows 8 over the complete screen, not for a part

Hello trebor66,

Welcome at the VMware communities forum.

First thing to try is to completely uninstall VMware Tools (if still installed), reboot, then install VMware Tools (and reboot again).

Does that help?
